We take our usual post-Gameweek delve into the members data this evening. Chelsea and West Ham’s playmakers are under assessment, as are Spurs and City’s main men up front, whilst we also cast an eye over Bournemouth’s fit-again flier and Norwich’s improving wide man as the Canaries attempt to salvage their top-flight berth for another season.

Is there another transfer you've made? Not sure why you can't afford Williams.
-
Can't you keep Bellerin, and ship someone else? I'd like that!
-
-
Anybody just really happy with their team for this GW? Whenever i feel like that it usuall ends up less than 30points 😆
-
I'm feeling really good about it after Arsenal won: http://imgur.com/cZBc56z
-
I'm happy, so yeah, it'll probably go badly! It's amazing how many top 10K players are nowhere near putting out an 11.
When the dust has settled, I'm hoping to be inside the top 5K. Maybe even with 2FT.
-
-
repost--looking for more input--bring in Sigurdsson or Yaya Toure for Ozil? thanks...
-
sigur
-
Siggy for now and then if you still have the WC bring in Toure for the Doubles
-
So you have a lot of value tied up in Ozil? If so, is there another move you could make?
If not, go Yaya - slightly. -
Siggy
-
-
I really need some help guys. My main two league competitors have only 4 (2nd placed guy) and 7 (1st) player playing this GW. I have 11, but my captaincy choice will be crucial to catching up. It's a big week.
Would love some help: http://imgur.com/cZBc56z-
Set up perfectly imo. Good team. You'll make serious ground.
-
Cheers, I've been prepping for this week hoping for the other two to choke up, and looking at their teams, they haven't planned for this. Especially second place.
-
Well you're about to bear the fruits. Well played!
-
Thanks mate!
-
-
-
-
What sort of lead are you chasing?
Fine team-
I've got a 100 point gap on first right now, about 40 behind 2nd. Banking largely on this for a mini-league with my mates. I feel this is the week I pull myself back into the mix, especially because second doesn't have Aguero or Kane.
-
its doable for sure but u need to cut that gap this week.. im chasing 79 myself and leader has 6 blankers as it stands.. im going all in with Vardy captain
-
Vardy captain? That's interesting, because 2nd has Vardy in my league, but first doesn't, while first has Aguero and Kane but 2nd doesn't. Not too worried about 2nd with only four players, but I can totally see 1st banking on a Kane/Aguero captaincy, and I want to counter it. What do you think?
-
Well yeah its likely that ur leader will go Aguero and im thinking same about mine.. its a close call between Kun Kane Vardy Mahrez and id back them all to return attacking points tbh.. not long left in the season to claw back these points so im going with something different i would advise you to do the same
-
Vardy would be an interesting option if Aguero/Kane blanks, somehow Siggy(c) is really appealing to me as well.
-
-
-
-
-
-
What is your team value? That team seems nearly impossible. Nice job.
-
TV: 110.9
SV: 107.8
Cheers mate!-
You should link your team. I'd love to see how you got there.
-
Haha will do, give me a second.
I will warn you, I have done some really stupid crap this year haha-
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/entry/27598/event-history/29/ Have a laugh, go on 🙂
-
Hey, at least you are having fun with it. 74 transfers!
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
if you intend to bring ozil back in later perhaps Siggy might have better fixtures
-
Okay, so without Arsenal playing, I have 10 players - so it is a matter of using 1 of my 2 FT.
Team is like.
Butland,
van Dijk, Otamendi, Huth,
OZIL, Mahrez, Arnautovic, Alli,
Vardy, Kane, Aguero.
(Ruddy, Nyom, Payet, Bellerin).
***So, who do I get for Ozil?-
Silva or siggy if you can afford...otherwise King (Bou) might sound like a mid-cap bargain
-
Yeah, I can afford. And I'd need a sure starter for the week, so I guess I'd rather not get King!
-
-
Siggy or Eriksen
-
Triple up on Spurs attack? Given they have (avl, BOU) next - not the worst idea. Thanks!
-
BOU won't concede many
-
-
-
Why not dump Nyom instead?
-
Because with £0.0m in bank, there's no decent defender I can get (even Daniels is priced out), and not a fan of 442 myself.
-
Fair enough. But if you have any value tied up in Ozil and you likely will want to get him back for DGW, it just doesn't seem a prudent move. I'd rather go Bellerin for Williams than lose value on Ozil for a short term change.
-
I don't have any value tied up on Ozil. I was late on the bandwagon, and I bought him for £9.8m...
-
-
-
-
I would hold Ozil and get Williams for Bellerin, or Nyom if you have cash
-
I'd push for Siggy. Great differential.
-
Bournemouth defence has been decent lately, hasn't it?
-
It has but I'm convinced Siggy's form will trump that. Not even Arsenal could keep him out of points in 45 minutes.
-
Yes, and a great GW31 feature, as well!
-
Exactly. Worth a captaincy shout that GW.
-
-
-
-
-
Cheers for all the responses, pal!
So it is either
1. Ozil to Sigurdsson OR
2. Bellerin to Williams
for me...-
1 easily.
-
-
-
Morning DZ. Have 1FT and a million in the bank. Playing Targett + 10 this GW. Is it worth doing Targett -> Wolly? I want to rather save and stack up transfers to get a strong squad for 34 without WCarding.
-
Yeah I don't think it's worth it. You have "11" players playing, not worth choking up other GWs for a possible two pointer.
-
There is almost no chance Targett plays now that Fonte is out. If you can swap him for someone you like for the next few weeks (like Williams), it might be worth it.
-
Have Williams. Thats the problem.
-
You've got a lot of other affordable options with good two week match ups: Wolly, Simpson, Huth, Wimmer (if you don't have three Spurs).
-
-
-
I'd use it but maybe try get a city player in if your focussing on 34
-
No Dosh. Bellerin, Ozil and Firmino on the bench.
-
-
-
Thank you ARS for qualifying..
At least you can aim at winning this Cup for a 3rd consecutive time instead of waiting on PL.
But the most exciting part is that so many peeps still have Ozil and Bellerin to make their 11.
I do have Ozil too, but on my bench. All my weeks-long planning is now worth something.
My mini league leader can only field 7, and already played his WC.
But is still 50pts ahead of me.. But I'm becoming more and more optimistic about closing the gap now 🙂-
You could easily half that deficit this week
-
Yeah the two leaders in my league are fielding 4(2nd place) and 7(1st) this week, and they've got about 40/100 points on me, but I'm feeling confident that with a good week, I'd be right back in the mix.
-
But still, looking at their team, I'm getting the impression, they are more stocked for the DGW.
Got to make up for this, else I'll easily lose the advantage.
Just hope this GW is a juicy and high-scoring one.-
Agreed, but I have four GWs to fix up for that. They've got days to fix up this, especially if they haven't been paying attention to fixtures (this week is going to burn casuals)
-
-
I wish I was in your league lol
Mine had bad teams for gw but I still did shockingly so couldn't take advantage.
This time all the teams around me seem to be ok, maybe the odd -4 needed by 1 or 2-
Oh my league is shocking. I've taken massive hits and I'm still arguably in the running.
-
Yeah same here, seems like everybody is perfectly set up
-
-
-
-
A) Buy Hart, Fabianski or Butland
B) Start VVD or Wollschield-
Logically B, but there is something appealing about Hart.
-
I don't think that was the question.
I'd go Fab and Wolly.-
Oh I get it, two part question 🙂
Hart and Wolly mate-
Thanks ha
-
-
-
-
B) easy Wolly
-
cheers
-
-
-
Thoughts on : Payet-> Siggy & Khazri->Alli for -4 to field 11 players?
Only thing stopping me is Khazri has gret run after the blank.
Will give me midfield of: Mahrez Siggy Khazri Sterling (Ozil)-
Wouldn't it be Mahrez Siggy Alli Sterling? Either way, I'd make the move. Alli is better long term anyway.
-
Opps right. Cheers mate.
-
-
Points hits will be lost in the sea of hits this week, wouldn't worry about loosing 4
-
-
Need to use my 1 FT to field 11 players. Have 1.2m ITB
Lloris DDG*
Fuchs Daniels Williams Janmaat Moreno*
Mahrez Alli Ozil* Payet* Stanislas*
Kun Kane Vardy
A) Moreno --> VVD
B) Payet --> Siggy or Yaya
C) Stanislas --> Ritchie or King
D) Ozil --> Silva, Siggy or Yaya
E) Other
Thoughts? 🙂-
C Ritchie or D Silva/Yaya
-
If you had to pick 1, who would you go for?
-
-
Ozil to Siggy, transfer back later after AVL.
-
I like Siggy v Villa but don't fancy Swans away to Bourn this week although Siggy is scoring well at the moment.
-
Form over fixture 🙂
-
-
-
I'd probably go B with Siggy Neckar he's got Villa next week too. But the boring move (Stan to King) allows you to keep your best assets.
-
Ya this is true. Although Stan out allows me to keep Ozil & Payet, it would kill me if Silva or Siggy hauls and King/Ritchie blanks 🙁
-
-
-
So, it will be quite interesting to see whether the teams with only one blank after GW30 get their DGW in GW34 or GW37.
If most of them get it in GW37, I'd hardly have a decent team for GW34. Wish I had a couple of Everton/Liverpool players in the squad!-
I've only got Firmino. Prioritizing Lukaku too.
-
I can't be assed working it out till this weeks FA cup games are played and the league confirms rescheduled dates
-
-
Any suggestions on this lot lads or good to go? 4-3-3 the way to go? Cheers

Looks fine.

Will do fine
-
-
i really hope somebody cracks the code for the ultimate way to use the wc/bb/tc chips, and shares it with the world.
i can't handle the planning..-
ditto
-
-
Which player is more likely to get a DGW in GW34
Koscielny
Jagielka
Azpilicueta
I need to ship one to get 11 out for GW30 which one for Kompany?
Thanks-
I'd ship Kosc
-
Jagielka will almost definitely have a DGW in 34, since Everton have 2 fixtures to reschedule. Keep him.
-
-
Need Cedric to start to have 11 playing this gw. What are the chances of that happening ya think?
-
High? Haven't been keeping up with SOU apart from VVD and Fonte, but doesn't Cedric start often?
-
benched 2 of the last 4 games.
-
I'd figure they'd start him especially with Fonte absent
-
Wouldn't Yoshida just fill the gap at CB though?
-
I feel like Koeman would want to play the best defenders around Yoshida to compensate
-
They will move to four in the back instead of 3-5-2, so Cedric should play.
-

FPL team of the season vs Pre season hype let downs
-----------Butland ------------------------------------------Panti
---Dann Toby Daniels---------------------Ivanovic Terry Lescott
Mahrez Payet Alli Ozil -------------Hazard Ritchie Walcott Depay
---Vardy Aguero Lukaku-----------------Sakho Benteke Rooney
Cech Barkley VVD Huth (95.5)---Mccarthy Lens Coates Prodl-
Major format fail 🙁 Sorry!
-
I don't hate it actually. Keeps the post short
-
-
Looking back on it, the Depay, Mane, Rooney, Hazard, and Walcott hype was hilarious
-
What? Totally disagree. Mane had a real shot at a good year and so did Hazard. Walcott was always prone to rotation and Depay would always have it tough as it's his first season
-
Oh I agree totally, but in hindsight, it's pretty funny how those turned out
-
Oh I see where you're coming from yeah. I'm most disappointed by Walcott; I keep expecting more and am always let down
-
Hazard has been the biggest letdown, but I'm very surprised about Mane. Stats from last season really backed him up, and he's been piss poor. Never believed in the Depay hype, Rooney was always declining, and Walcott would've been great but he's been Sterling-like in front of goal this season.
-
Definitely agree about Rooney. I think the Depay hype was overblown a bit but I don't think it's fair to (fully) judge until he starts his second season.
-
-
-
-
-
The hype for those players were reasonable, just didn't click for them
-
Precisely this. Kinda humorous considering how essential we thought they were.
-
-
-
Lescott Walcott Depay Rooney Coates Prodl should be on right ffs it looked good before I posted lol
-
I'd call Sanchez a fail too.
-
I think it's maybe interesting that Sanchez and Hazard had such a tough year.. is it possibly something defences have learned to defend against?
-
Hazard has nowhere been at his best or even close this season and Sanchez is too predictable most of the times, and does not linkup well with Giroud.
-
I think part of the issue might be what we're seeing recently with Depay.. he's begun to sometimes push it deep and cross instead of cutting in, making his cuts more effective when he does. I'd like to see more of that from Hazard and Sanchez to make the threat more unpredictable
-
Though I might be way off here, I'm haven't looked at the stats
-
I*
-
-
Being a winger myself, it's all about unpredictability. You know Hazard and Sanchez will cut in, so defender read that and give them the sideline to run through. Sanchez and Hazard need to start taking that space and giving defenders something to think about, rather than trying to force in and get shut down every time. Whenever some defender stops me from cutting in, I just keep going, and you have at least a five yard gain on them because of how they're positioned to stop you cutting in every time.
-
Maybe, I dont know though, I rate Hazard way more than Sanchez thou. I think Hazard will be at his best again next season.
-
Sanchez>Hazard for me. Sanchez offers so much more to a team. Hazard really goes through the motions until he gets the ball, and now he's not even much of a threat with the ball. Sanchez is a livewire, even if he doesn't score he'll give your team a headache.
-
Maybe I wrong, but just my opinion.
Although Haz has been poor this season, people easily forget he single handedly carried Chelsea to the title.
Even though Sanchez looks worldclass when in form, he lacks the level of consistency to do it throughout the season.-
Fair point. I just think we rate Sanchez on consistent of goals and assists, truly his performance is always consistent imo, the product just varies.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
I can field 11 with Targett as a potential 12th.
I'm wondering whether it's worth swapping Bunn for a better keeper to prepare for the upcoming DGW's?
1FT and have Butland/Bunn-
There is no need to make that transfer. Just hold it
-
Not necessary at the moment.
-
Cheers guys
-
Currently have Butland/Bunn that is.
-
Yea im thinking same. Elliot?!
-
Was thinking about Adrian or Gomes
-
-
-
I think there is a decent chance Koeman plays 5 at he back this GW, especially without Fonte.
Cedric--VVD--Yoshida--Bert--Targett-
Yoshida looks vunerable imo
-
as a VVD owner, I'm a bit worried
-
Oops.. VVD central, Yoshida RCB
-
-
yeah lacking physicality but they really have no other choice.
-
-
Looks realistic.
-
true, Martina involved occasionally
-
-
-
Hey lads, really in need of help. Risking wasting my transfer this GW.
Butland
Simpson Daniels van Dijk
Silva Sigurdsson Mahrez Alli
Aguero Vardy Kane
De Gea, Payet, Dawson, Cresswell
2 FT 0.9 ITB, want to bin Dawson but NOR in 31 and WAT, ars in 34 don't sound very bad for a bench boost, Cresswell has lei, WAT as well.. perhaps Dawson to van Aanholt or van Dijk to Kompany, but figure Kompany won't play both games in the DGW? Want Firmino in as well for the 2 DGWs and no blank 35 but no one I can get him in for this week.. really torn, thoughts appreciated.-
Really tough call I think. Dawson out is what I would look to do, or maybe DDG to a DGW keeper
-
DDG is a DGW keeper already, no? CPL, WBA in 34 and WHU, nor in 37.
-
CPL, AVL in 34 rather
-
oh.. right yes haha good point
-
-
-
-
Tough one. Dawson out imo, but follow your gut.
-
when will you be wcing
-
Used it already, was in a rut earlier.. been worth it till now, hoping to use the right mixture of FTs and hits to negotiate it.
-
-
-
Beware! KDB will be back soon....
I think he will ready for GW 32 after int break...
Stay away from YYT or silva...-
or get Silva, KDB, Aguero 😉
-
Kompany is more tempting....
-
It will depend on the other options for the doubles, for me
-
-
-
Yeah that's a big game changer. Already planning for it.
-
-
Just pulled the trigger on Oxil to Siggy. Feeling good.
Gtg lads?
Butland
Sagna Toby Fuchs Williams
Siggy Mahrez Alli
Kun Kane Vardy ( c )
Subs: Forster, Smith, Firmino, Payet-
Looks great!
-
Captaincy choice is pretty ballsy
-
At King Power to Newcastle
Safe bet Kane?-
If you're playing safe, I'd say Aguero. If you're playing a little gutsy, Kane. Vardy is ballsy.
-
Cheers...
Ill probably play safe eventually but feels good to be ballsy for now before GW deadline. Thanks for the feedback!!-
No problem, make your move based on your rankings.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
All I can say is that some of you are in weaka** mini-leagues!
-
Oh yeah I'm in one and I know it. Pretty sure I've taken 20+ hits more than twice and I'm still in the running
-
There are times that I take hits just to give up, and I still manage to be in the running. I would've quit a while ago if it wasn't for how bad this league is. That's why I'm trying hard for these last few game weeks to make a late push.
-
patience!
Mine has a couple who know what they are doing and have had good seasons (leader is 6K), the rest is driftwood and I'm languishing in 7th! However, I WILL snatch third. Most around me have used chips, second WC, struggling for this week a bit....
This year is like the tortoise and the hare.
I'm the tortoise.-
That last analogy sums up exactly how I feel. Now I hope my season ends the way the race did. 🙂
-
-
-
-
The guy leading my league is ranked 392 in the world. So, yeah, I'm shooting for second 🙂
-
-
Ultimate DZ. Any other teams out there that need help?
-
Yeah the current group online is pretty efficient right now hahaha
-
I know there must be some hiding out there not posting
-
-
O/
-
What would you do here mate?
Butland
Cedric Ota Simpson Azpi* CBJ*
Mahrez Sterling Payet* Ozil* Khazri*
Kane Kun Vardy
1FT, £0.3 inb-
Rough one. I did Payet > Silva last week, I might consider Ozil > Silva.
Would you be willing to take a hit to field 11?-
Cant get silva, max out on City.
I'm looking at Payet->Siggy & Khazri-> Alli for -4. Decent? I'm chasing a big lead so maybe look to get Eriksen/other ?
-
-
-
-
Which of these defenders would you get to replace Ivan and why?
A. Fuchs
B. Huth
C. Kompany
D. Williams
Thanks-
Fuchs for both CS's and bonus pts.
-
Fuchs looked mighty tasty the other night. Nearly scored
-
Thanks..
-
-
Depends a little for me on the rest of the team, and when you plan to WC.. Fuchs over Huth, Williams short term is good, Kompany if looking to hold longer
-
My current backline is Bellerine Daniels Ivan Olson Dier. I plan to wildcard in GW33 and would probably be going with Hart as I fear Kompanys injury record.
Maybe Williams till GW33?-
Really close between Fuchs and Williams for me
-
Ok thanks. I would just compare defensive team stats over the the last 4 for both teams and decide.
-
-
-
-
Fuchs for the rest of the season, Kompany for midterm, Williams for short term
-
Thanks
-
-
-
-
LEI are bottom of the ticker for GW36/37/38.
mun EVE che
9 points right there. Could be intense.-
Yeah those games will make or break their season, and sadly, I can see them choking up in all of them. Hope they prove me wrong!
-
Liverpool's last six
STO bou NEW swa WAT wba - Ozil face-
:wow:
-
Firmino! 🙂
-
Plus DGWs
Triple Pool looks the way to go from GW33 onwards-
I'd avoid their def at all costs right now... hopefully they pick up some defensive form... tripling up on attack would be very risky.
Firmino + one of Sturridge/Coutinho for sure-
Maybe Moreno/Clyne but they are awful at he back. Hopfully Sturridge finds some form.
-
Skertel back would be interesting thou.
-
-
-
-
Yeah, that's without the DGWs included. So Everton in there somewhere, but don't know if that's home or away
-
Everton and Chelsea
-
ok. I think attacking wise we've seen that Klopp's Liverpool can put anyone to the sword
-
Eh?
-
-
-
-
-
-
Gosling
Or
Smith-
Gradle else Gosling
-
Smith imo. Midfield spots are important.
-
-
Aight lads, I'm signing off. 12:30 AM in the US. Time to get some shut-eye. 🙂
-
Night
-
-
Keep hold of Bellerin or Azpi?
Who to bring in from Williams, VVD, Wolly?-
Williams in for Azpi, for me
-
Azpi for VVD
-
-
Foster Hennesey
Daniels Simpson Azpi Kosc Targett
Alli Mahrez Payet Ozil Sigg
Aguero Kane Vardy
Hi guys need some help with this
Have no keepers for gw30 and seems like I can only field 8/9 players right now
Have 1 FT and exactly 0 ITB
Anticipating taking a hit or two to get 11 players this gw
WC already used as well so any tips on what I should do long term?
